I've tried FM radio, AM radio, Pandora, iHeart Radio, and even Rhapsody, but I can't seem to find a radio station I like. I might be able to find one that plays one or two songs I like, but then the next five songs will all be crap! What's the deal? Why aren't stations playing anything good anymore?
That's what records are for, man!
You must be particular. As Wayne said, it's time to hit the albums. If your music is on your computer, you can set up playlists.
Isn't Pandora that station that plays songs based on previous selections? If it is, then yeah, definitely hit the album stack. Sounds like your taste is music is getting condensed.

Sounds like your taste is music is getting condensed. Yes, you pick artists you like and you rate the songs you hear. Pandora then analyzes for common elements and plays other songs with the same elements to see if you like them. I was really surprised that Timron couldn't build a station he enjoyed with Pandora, but hopefully his own stash will make him happy.
When you say "certain elements" Chicken, what do you mean? Like the structure of a song? If the song is mostly major chords or minor chords? I don't have Pandora but I've heard a lot of good things about it.
